Fallen Earth is an MMORPG developed by Fallen Earth LLC and Icarus Studios LLC. The game takes place in a post-apocalyptic setting located in and around the American Grand Canyon. The game is currently in its closed beta stage of development, with a release date of September 9, 2009.
Synopsis
Plot
The Fallen Earth story begins in the 21st Century, when the first in a series of natural disasters hit the United States. As Americans struggle to recover, an investment tycoon named Brenhauer buys a controlling stake in a mega-corporation named GlobalTech. By 2051, he moves his headquarters to the Grand Canyon Province, where GlobalTech eventually creates a self-sufficient economic and military mini-state. Meanwhile, in India and Pakistan, the Shiva virus, named for the dance-like convulsions that it caused in its victims, appears among the human populace. As the infection starts to spread, countries accuse each other of engineering the virus. Political paranoia turn to open aggression and nuclear conflict. The nuclear conflict combined with the virus decimates the planet. Less than one percent of Earth's population survived the Fall, and the Hoover Dam Garrison and Grand Canyon Province are the only known outposts of human civilization.
Outside the protective confines of the Hoover Dam Garrison, the player will encounter ruins of the old world, genetically-altered creatures, strange technology, and six warring factions. Some factions seek to rebuild the old world, others wish to build a new one in their own image, and some simply desire chaos and anarchy. The game is set in the Grand Canyon Province, a 7,000 square-kilometer area surrounding the Grand Canyon and Hoover Dam. The environment is zoneless and set in sectors which can be advanced through at the players own pace, each of which continue the story-arc of the game.
Among its features are first-person and third-person views, classless system, Player-versus-Player combat, and crafting.
Factions
Players start out neutral in Fallen Earth and can remain neutral or choose to align themselves with a particular faction. Aligning with a faction will give characters a head start in skills and equipment that the faction specializes in (eg. they'll have easier access to learning certain skills). There are also a number of NPC factions that players can build alignment with. Helping or disrupting factions will affect the player's relationships with them. Killing faction members can also influence your faction alignment.
The alignments of the 6 main factions can be arranged into a "wheel". Each faction has 2 allies, 2 enemy and 1 arch-enemy faction, with the arch-enemy being the faction on the opposite side of the wheel.
Primary factions also have a number of sub-groups that hold to various motives and differences in ideology. While some of these sub-factions are known, many are secretive and will only reveal their existence to those they trust. Characters can become members of a sub-faction and gain special titles, abilities and equipment. Some sub-factions are mutually exclusive, but not all are.
Enforcers
Roots: Military and police forces, first responders and emergency support personnel.
Since The Fall: Dedicated to the belief that order and civilization will be restored, and willing to place their weapons and their lives behind that belief, the Enforcers march a narrow and precarious path, balancing the defense of order with the possibility of dictatorship.
Children of the Apocalypse (aka CHOTA)
Roots: Anarchists, survivalists, paramilitary militia, rebels of society.
Since The Fall: Gathered into a loose confederation, the primal and nomadic CHOTA harass and disrupt attempts to re-build and re-establish society - striking, destroying, and then moving on in search of their next target.
Vistas
Roots: Environmentalists, alternate energy entrepreneurs, seekers of holistic forms of medicine, health and organic food.
Since The Fall: Devoted to the preservation of the natural world, the Vista’s kept knowledge in plant and herbal medicine alive, expanded research with genetic and agricultural skills essential to survival, but their opposition to the resurrection of advanced synthetic technologies creates tension with those who remember how comfortable things seemingly were – and could be again.
Techs
Roots: Scientists, technologists, professors and researchers in all science fields.
Since The Fall: Primarily devoted to maintaining what vestiges of pre-Fall science and technology remain, the Techs are also constantly on the alert for opportunities to rediscover and re-implement the technologies that some say played a part in causing the Fall.
Lightbearers
Roots: Doctors, visionaries and followers of spirit paths, faithful devotees of mind powers and healing arts.
Since The Fall: Devoting themselves to their vision of bringing Light into the shadows and darkness of the Fallen Earth, the Lightbearers view their path as the only true path, and their mastery of mental and mutational powers makes theirs a faith to be feared as well as followed.
Travelers
Roots: Crime syndicates and cartels, street gangs, secret societies, triads, con artists and thieves.
Since The Fall: Using their skills and secret networks to create an “underground economy”, the Travelers blend in to deceive… and are both a threat to the re-establishment of civilization and providers of otherwise unobtainable goods and services.

analog in the direction shown in order to survive a sequence or avoid taking
damage during the sequence. These range from a single button tap, a rapid
button tap, two buttons pressed at once, a left thumbstick shake (from left to
right), and left thumbstick rotation.
In co-op mode, if both players fail to react to a specific sequence then both
players will suffer damage or defeat. Sometimes a certain player of a certain
character will be required to input a command while the other player watches.
The screen will display "Chris" or "Sheva" at that time depending on the
character performing the on-screen action.
- Button Prompt Dodging
During some normal enemy battles and boss battles, a player may be required to
input a specific on-screen button command to dodge or counter an on-coming
attack. The character will usually roll or dodge out of the way of the
incoming attack. A player must input the on-screen command very quickly or
suffer damage, or sometimes instant death.
TIP: In Normal or Veteran mode, when a single button command appears on the
screen during gameplay such as the Action or Run button, a player can press
both the Action and Run button at the same time to keep from missing the single
button tap. This will NOT work for Professional mode however. In Professional
mode, any wrong button press will automatically end the sequence in failure.

ITEMS/ITEM DROPS \_____________________________________________________________
Items are scattered throughout various sections of the environment and can be
found in breakable objects and collected in the form of item drops after
defeating an enemy. Items lying in the environment will always be the same
item for each playthrough while items obtained from breakable objects and enemy
drops are random.
To destroy a breakable object, it is usually best to equip the knife and slash
it in order to save ammo when destroying it to save ammo. In tense situations,
you may want to shoot the object with a handgun to keep from having to go
through the knife equipping and slashing animations.
Items that are found in breakable objects and items that are dropped by enemies
give off a certain colored glow or other appearance depending on the type of
item:
.--------------------------------------------------------------.
| Gold/Valuable Pickup = Blue |
| Health Pickup = Green |
| Ammo Pickup = Red |
| Key Item = Shimmers with white glow periodically |
'--------------------------------------------------------------'
Keep these item appearances in mind when in tense situations in order to
quickly distinguish between them. You don't really want to accidentally grab
gold when you're close to death and there is a health item glowing green up
ahead, do you?
TIP: Items that are dropped by enemies can sometimes mount up in a certain
area. To avoid picking up an unwanted item, move over the group of items until
the item you actually want to retrieve is displayed on the screen. The
character has to be standing directly above the item in order to retrieve a
certain item from a group of several items.
__________________
HAZARDOUS OBJECTS \____________________________________________________________
Just like with all Resident Evil games starting from Resident Evil 3: Nemesis
and onward, Resident Evil 5 has many hazardous objects that can be shot from a
distance in order to damage a group of enemies at once.
- Red Explosive Barrel (Drum) - These red metal barrels can be shot from a
distance to trigger a big explosion that will heavily damage any enemy that
is standing near it. Explosive barrels produce a much bigger explosion this
time around, so be sure to stand far enough away from them before shooting.
- Gas Tank - In a few areas of the game, red explosive gas tanks or gas
canister can be shot for an explosion much like a red explosive barrel.
Gas tanks can sometimes be turned over on their side during some boss fights.
- Oil Canisters - Oil canisters are red canisters that are always found in a
group. Shoot one of the oil canisters and the shot will pierce one of the
barrels and ignite the oil inside. The oil will make a path of fire in the
direction that it spews and burn any enemies that are in the way or happen to
step through it. The fire will eventually die down in a few seconds.
- Transformer - Transformers are electrical metal power boxes that are found
hanging from wooden poles in certain areas. Aim for any portion of them and
shoot them to make them fall and send out a blast of electricity all around
them that will damage and stagger any enemy that is near it. The electrical
shock will begin to die down and eventually stop.
A grounded transformer can be shot when it is inactive to send out another
blast of electricity once again and it can be shot while the electricity
field is weak to keep the small electrical charge going. Even the small
electrical charge can damage any close range enemy. Grounded transformers
can be constantly shot again for more explosive electrical blasts while they
are in the area.
TIP: When you enter an area and see a hanging transformer, if you plan on using
it, it is best to shoot it down early so you don't have to aim upwards during
the middle of an intense battle. Just watch for the electric current and make
sure that your partner is not in the way.
NOTE: Be sure to avoid shooting any of the above objects if your partner is
currently in the way of the object or that character will take damage. This is
so easy to do on accident while shooting a red explosive barrels since the
barrels have quite a blast radius. While playing the game in co-op you really
need to respect your partner and not diminish their faith in you by shooting a
red explosive barrel to take out a Majini mob that they are caught in the
middle of.

MELEE ATTACKS \________________________________________________________________
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Enemy Stance Through Gunfire
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Both Chris and Sheva can perform each of their own unique physical attacks by
hitting an enemy in a certain portion of the body with a gun (handgun, machine
gun, or rifle) or the knife to make the enemy perform a specific stun
animation. Run up to the enemy during that stun animation and press the Action
button when the button prompt command appears to perform the melee attack
command showcased on the screen. Below, we shall take a look at the variety of
stun animations that a Majini enemy can be forced into along with how to
achieve the animation.

Welcome to my Resident Evil 5 Guide, fellow Resident Evil fan! - Berserker
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
L O N G T I M E N O S E E, C H R I S.
Chris Redfield now a member of the BSAA (Bioterrorism Security Assessment
Alliance) has been sent to Africa in order to investigate a reported
bioterrorist hotspot in the town of Kijuju. He drives his jeep along the dirt
road toward his destination and prepares to meet up with another BSAA agent.
When Chris arrives, the agent introduces herself - Sheva Alomar, his new...
P A R T N E R . . . ?
The familiar word echoes throughout Chris' mind as he recalls the tombstone
with the year November 23, 2006 etched into it. You see, his last partner was
a woman too - Jill Valentine. Both Jill and Chris survived the horrors of the
Spencer Estate in Raccoon City - what later became known as "The Mansion
Incident". Jill is now proclaimed dead, but Chris believes she is still alive.
Despite that, casualties continue to the mount over the long years he has
struggled. More and more, he finds himself wondering...
I S I T A L L W O R T H F I G H T I N G F O R ?
Who knows? Maybe one day, he'll find out. Chris has got a job to do here
though, and he's going to see it through. Both Chris and Sheva gather their
belongings and enter the town of Kijuju. They are met with vacant and ominous
stares as they walk down the streets of the town. All they see is death on the
way to their location and then sudden...
S I L E N C E.
A siren is heard in the distance and the town's inhabitants suddenly
disappear...? But where? The two meet up with their contact and he fills them
in on the situation and where they are to meet up with the rest of the BSAA
squad. The contact tells them of a lead that the BSAA has on a man named
"Irving". He also mentions something else... something about a doomsday
project codenamed "Uroboros". Chris and Sheva gather their gear and soon
depart further into the streets of Kijuju to meet up with their squad and find
Irving.

--> WORDS FROM THE AUTHOR
We last met at the Spencer Estate, wasn't it? While aboard the Ecliptic
Express? During Jill Valentine's Last Escape from Raccoon City? Maybe during
the Fall of Umbrella? Or perhaps during the details of the most recent Kennedy
Report? Maybe you have read my work before through my Resident Evil 4: Wii
Edition guide or my Resident Evil: The Umbrella Chronicles guide. Maybe you
haven't. Either way, prepare for a few year's worth of anticipation for
Resident Evil 5 in written form.
How many times have you played the RE5 demo? I've had a fellow gamer ask me
that question over Xbox LIVE and after a long pause, the only answer I could
give him was somewhere over 100. It's actually much more than that, I assure
you. Has there been another demo that you've spent as much time on as Resident
Evil 5? My answer? Never. My obsession with the series has never been so
clear to me.
Like many other gamers, I consider myself a very hardcore Resident Evil fan.
I've been completely obsessed with the Resident Evil series all the way back
since the original game was released for PSX in 1996. Because of this love for
the series this guide will cover ever single solitary piece of information you
can think of and then some.

NETWORK SETTINGS AND ONLINE PLAY \_____________________________________________
After choosing your difficulty or character (after beating it once), you'll
come across the network settings where one can control various online
functions.
--> Co-Op Settings
Rogue = No other player can join in your game. The partner will always
be controlled by the AI only.
Invite Only = Only players that are invited can join.
No Limits = Anyone can join your game at any time, so long as you willingly
accept the player when that person joins.
--> Attack Reaction
This changes whether both characters can hit each other or not. The option is
"No" by default. By choosing "Yes", the players will be able to hit each
other, so if one character stands in the way while another character fires, the
bullets will hit the character that stands in front of the gunfire. A
character's melee attacks can hit the partner as well. Ever wanted to feel the
full force of Chris' Haymaker? Players cannot sustain damage from one another
under this option however.
Turning this on will also make it to where the AI partner will join in on
hitting an enemy after an arm stun melee. While an enemy staggers away after
an arm stun melee attack such as a Hook or Kick, the AI partner will usually
run up and perform a melee to the staggering enemy as well. The attack
reaction can really help out when fighting a Big Man Majini since he can be hit
from either side during a tag team melee sequence.
--> Infinite Ammo
The infinite ammo option allows the host player to choose whether or not
infinite ammo is allowed in the game or not. By choosing "Yes", players that
have unlocked the infinite ammo option per gun can use infinite ammo guns while
playing alongside the host. By choosing "No" no infinite ammo weapons are
allowed and are thereby locked out from use.
Infinite Ammo may be turned on under the Bonus Features section. Choose "Yes"
under Infinite Ammo once the option has been unlocked per weapon to use
infinite ammo for that gun. A player must fully upgrade a weapon to unlock
infinite ammo for it.
--> Xbox 360 Invite:
After allowing a player to join a game by choosing "Invite Only" or "No
Limits", press the guide button on the Xbox 360 controller, choose "Friends"
and cycle to the friend that you want to invite. Select your friend then
select either the "Invite to Game" or "Invite to Party and Game" option to send
that player an invite.
--> Xbox 360 Accept Invite
Open the invite message then choose to join the game. Both players will be
taken to the main inventory menu and both players must choose to start the game
by picking the "Ready" option or one player can choose "Ready" and the other
player will have 60 seconds to manage any leftover needs before the game
automatically starts.
--> PS3 Invite:
After allowing a player to join a game by choosing the "Invite Only" or "No
Limits" open up the XMB by pressing the PS button then select a player on your
friends list and press the /\ button then choose to "Invite this Player".
--> PS3 Accept Invite:
Someone must first invite you to a game of RE5, obviously. You will receive a
message displaying the following:
Subject: Resident Evil 5
Would you like to play RESIDENT EVIL 5 in story mode with me?
Once you receive this message, highlight any friend on your friends list and
press /\ then select "Accept Invitation". From the screen that pops up, press
the X button then choose to "Join Game" when the invitation appears. Both
players will be taken to the main inventory menu and both players must choose
to start the game by picking the "Ready" option or one player can choose
"Ready" and the other player will have 60 seconds to manage any leftover
inventory needs before the game automatically starts.
For Mercenaries mode invitations, the following message will be received:
Subject: RESIDENT EVIL 5
Would you like to play RESIDENT EVIL 5 in THE MERCENARIES mode with me?
For Versus mode invitations, the following message will be received:
Subject: RESIDENT EVIL 5
Would you like to player RESIDENT EVIL 5 in VERSUS mode with me?

JOINING AN ONLINE GAME \_______________________________________________________
--> Icons
The following icons will appear along with each session.
-> Connection
|| || ||
The above icon which consists of three bars displays the connection speed of
the session. If all bars are filled then the session should play normally
with minimal lag. If a bar is unfilled (starting from the right) then a
joining player will most likely experience some online lag in that session.
-> Attack Reaction
\/ /!\
/\ = Attack Reaction Off '---' = Attack Reaction On
The icons above showcase if Attack Reaction is off or on. The symbol
represented by the "white X" means that character cannot hit each other and
the icon showcased with the "red ! inside the bloody /\" means that
characters can hit each other.
-> Flag
Each session will have a flag icon which represents the country that the
host resides in. It's usually best to pick a host from your own country for
a chance at a better connection speed. Joining a host's connection from a
different country will more often result in the joining player experiencing
online lag during the session.
-> Character
Whether it be the actual picture representation of a character through the
quick match or the listed name of the character through the custom search,
the character shown is the character that the host is currently using. The
joining player will play with the other character. Sheva can only be chosen
as a starting character by the host once the host has completed all
chapters.
--> Quick Match
The Quick Match option will take the player to a "Session Details" screen where
the online service will search for an online game session to join. The details
will looks as follows:
Ten days before the official release of Resident Evil 5 Capcom, the version for the Xbox 360 has been filtered and the title is ready for download from torrent sites. While the game does not officially launch until March 13, 2009, users are start downloading at an alarming rate.
Of course, Capcom would not be happy about this event, and the company has said many times how much it hurts the issue of piracy and how much this affect their sales. More than the simple fact of the game have been filtered, it is concerned over the great loss of sales for the company, as millions of users have been waiting for this launch for several years.
The company is quite upset by the piracy of this title, even if not yet been released, and it is unknown if Capcom will try to find out about where the leak occurred and how it happened. Beyond that, little can be done now, as much to take legal action if they find out where they occurred.

Resident Evil 5, known in Japan as Biohazard 5 (Baiohazādo Faibu?), is a survival horror video game developed and published by Capcom. The game is the seventh installment in the Resident Evil survival horror series, and was released on March 5, 2009 in Japan and on March 13, 2009 in North America and Europe for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360. Polish games publisher CD Projekt stated in an interview that they expect a Windows version of the game in the second half of 2009.
Resident Evil 5 revolves around Chris Redfield and Sheva Alomar as they investigate a terrorist threat in a desert region of Africa.
Within its first three weeks of release, the game sold over 2 million units worldwide and became the highest selling game of the franchise in the United Kingdom. As of June 1, 2009, Resident Evil 5 has sold 5 million copies worldwide since launch, becoming the best selling game in the series.
Gameplay
Resident Evil 5 features similar gameplay to Resident Evil 4, with context-sensitive controls and dynamic cut scenes also making a return.
The player(s) control Chris Redfield and/or Sheva Alomar in a similar fashion to Leon S. Kennedy in Resident Evil 4, with the same over-the-shoulder perspective.[12] Once again, the game's environment plays a significant role. The Mercenaries minigame, featured in previous Resident Evil games, is present in Resident Evil 5. At launch, the multiplayer in the minigame was offline only, but a launch day patch gave the game online multiplayer.
The game features new types of enemies called "Majini", meaning evil spirit in Swahili. Furthermore, they are different from the previous ganados. The number of weapon variations has been greatly increased compared to the previous games in the series; there are now several varieties of the handgun, shotgun, submachine gun and rifle to choose from.
The game features some online elements. Resident Evil 5's main story mode can be played with two players, in a co-operative online mode. The feature will allow players to enter or leave anytime during the game. Players will not always stick together, and can be separated at points during the gameplay. An offline co-op mode is also in the game with the same co-op experience offered by the online co-op mode, only with two local players controlling the action in split screen.
Synopsis
Setting
The setting of Resident Evil 5 has a similar feel to the film Black Hawk Down. Takeuchi added that the development team is composed of staff members who worked on the original Resident Evil. The game is a direct sequel to the Resident Evil series. and continues chronologically after Resident Evil 4. The player characters and protagonists are Chris Redfield and Sheva Alomar, and the game takes place roughly ten years after the events of the original Resident Evil. The story explores Chris' life during the ten year interval between the two games. During the game's events, he is a member of a group known as Bioterrorism Security Assessment Alliance (BSAA), and sent to investigate a terrorist bio-organic weapon threat in an African desert area in Kijuju, that serves as the game's setting. The antagonists of the game include Albert Wesker, a returning antagonist to the series, and Excella Gionne, a relative of the founder of the Tricell Pharmaceutical Company who operates the company's African branch. Ozwell E. Spencer, the founder of Umbrella Corp. and a key figure in the background story of the series since the original Resident Evil, is also included in a flashback.
Story
The game begins as Chris Redfield is deployed to Kijuju, Africa, to join Sheva Alomar and apprehend Ricardo Irving, who is attempting to sell a bio-organic weapon on the black market. Along the way, they witness a local being fed a parasite, which quickly takes control of his body, turning him into a Majini. From here on, almost all Kijuju locals seen by Chris and Sheva have been turned into Majini. While moving to the location of Irving's deal, Chris and Sheva find Alpha team dead, except Captain DeChant, who gives them a hard drive containing data about Irving before he dies. As the duo progress, a friendly helicopter is downed, and all nearby BSAA units are ordered to go to the crash site. At the crash site, the duo is ambushed by Majini on motorcycles, but are then saved by Delta team. Among Delta team is Josh Stone, who gives Chris data from a hard drive that contains a picture of Jill Valentine, his old partner, who was presumed dead after a confrontation with Albert Wesker. Chris and Sheva continue, and eventually confront Irving. During this confrontation, a hooded figure arrives to aid Irving's escape. Irving leaves behind files which indicate that an oil field in the Marshlands, which was used to test out bio-organic weapons, is the actual deal location, the previously suspected one having been a hoax to slow the BSAA while the actual deal was taking place. The duo report this to headquarters, then attempts to regroup with Delta team. Upon arriving at the rendezvous point, they find that Delta team has also been defeated by a bio-organic weapon, but Sheva cannot find Josh among them. After defeating the bio-weapon, Sheva suggests reporting back to HQ, being the two sole survivors, but Chris expresses an interest in finding out if Jill is still alive. They continue on to the Marshlands, eventually finding Josh alive, and when he asks what happened to the rest of Delta team, Sheva tells him, "We're the only three left". They pursue Irving on a boat, but he escapes again and the oil field is blown up while the two escape with Josh on a speedboat. The trio locate and catch up to Irving's boat, and Chris and Sheva board it. Irving confronts the duo, and then injects himself with a virus, which causes him to mutate into a gigantic beast. Chris and Sheva defeat the mutated Irving, who is detached from the gigantic beast body, and upon death, he tells Chris that he will find answers to his questions in a nearby cave.
Upon arriving in the cave, Josh leaves the pair in order to report to HQ. The cavern leads Chris and Sheva to the underground kingdom of the Ndipaya tribe. Upon exploration, the duo find an underground base, one of the first to be set up by Umbrella, but currently operated by Tricell. Chris and Sheva find evidence and documentation that the Progenitor virus, which is the component in both the T- and G-virus that controls a subject's body, was found and manufactured here. The Progenitor virus was manufactured from a plant residing in the Ndipaya kingdom, called the Stairway to the Sun. The plant was used in Ndipayan ceremonies, but Ozwell Spencer took interest in it, and drove the Ndipaya out to build a base and study the plant, which eventually yielded the Progenitor virus. Chris and Sheva progress through the underground laboratory, and find a massive chamber with thousands of capsules containing human test subjects. The facility is documented in one of the hard drives, so Chris searches the computer database for an entry about Jill. The elevator takes them to the capsule in which Jill was being held, while they defeat the bio-organic weapon, U-8. The capsule opens, but it is empty. Excella Gionne then appears on a computer screen and warns them to leave. The duo later intercepts a radio transmission of Excella talking to Wesker, indicating Wesker's survival. Sheva and Chris confront Excella, but she infects a test subject with the Uroboros virus, which turns him into a bio-weapon. After defeating it, the two press on to find Excella. They do so, but are attacked by the hooded figure who aided Irving's escape. Wesker then reveals himself and unmasks the hooded figure, Jill, who is hostile and fights alongside Wesker. After a short fight, Wesker escapes and the duo are left to battle Jill. They spot a device on Jill's chest, which they remove. Jill then regains control of her body, and urges Chris and Sheva to pursue Wesker.
Chris and Sheva leave Jill, and emerge on the surface. They spot Wesker and Excella boarding a cargo ship, and follow. On the ship, the two find Excella, but she escapes, dropping a case of full syringes, which Sheva collects. Meanwhile, Wesker reminisces about a confrontation with Spencer, who tells Wesker that he is the only surviving subject from the "Wesker Plan," which was an attempt to create the ideal human being for Spencer's envisioned utopia. Spencer fantasizes about being the god of this utopia and Wesker impales him, declaring, "The right to be a god? That right is now mine."
Meanwhile, Chris and Sheva progress, and find a pile of corpses, Excella amidst them in pain. Wesker implies over an intercom system that Excella has been infected with Uroboros. Suddenly, Uroboros erupts from Excella's mouth, consuming her body and absorbing the others. Chris and Sheva escape, regroup, and use a satellite laser on the cargo ship to defeat the giant Uroboros monster. They continue to pursue Wesker, whom they spot over a surveillance monitor about to board a bomber that, if shot down, would infect the entire world with the Uroboros virus. Jill then calls Chris and tells him that Wesker's strength is the result of a potentially unstable virus and that he must regularly inject a serum in precise amounts to maintain his power. Before losing connection, Jill implies that an overdose of this drug, which Excella always carried in a suitcase by her, would likely act as a poison. Sheva then discovers that the serum is in one of the syringes she collected from Excella. The two find Wesker, restrain him, and inject him with the serum. He escapes onto the bomber, and the duo pursue him. After a short confrontation with Wesker, Chris deactivates the bomber, which plummets into a volcano. Before they crash, however, Sheva shoots Wesker off the bomber, into the volcano below. Chris and Sheva, now in the volcano, discover that Wesker survived and he infects himself with Uroboros. They defeat the infected Wesker, who falls into the lava. A helicopter appears over the horizon, manned by Josh and Jill, and Chris and Sheva board it. As the helicopter attempts to fly away, Wesker attempts to pull it down into the lava with him. Sheva and Chris shoot Wesker with two rocket-propelled grenades, and the helicopter is freed. In the helicopter, Chris ponders whether it is worth fighting to preserve humanity. He looks at Sheva and Jill and then decides it is worth it, "for a future without fear."
Controversy
Resident Evil 5's 2007 E3 trailer was questioned for its depiction of a Caucasian protagonist killing black enemies in an African village. Newsweek editor N'Gai Croal began the criticism, stating, "There was a lot of imagery in that trailer that dovetailed with classic racist imagery." He acknowledged that only the preview had been released.
The second trailer for the game, released on May 31, 2008, revealed a more racially diverse group of enemies, as well as Sheva, an African agent who assists the protagonist. However, designer Jun Takeuchi denied that complaints about racism had any effect in altering the design of Resident Evil 5. Takeuchi commented that the game's producers were surprised by the controversy. In an interview with MTV, he explained that Capcom's staff is racially diverse, and acknowledged that various cultures may have had different opinions on the trailer. In an interview with Computer and Video Games, producer Masachika Kawata also commented on the issue, stating, "We can't please everyone. We're in the entertainment business - we're not here to state our political opinion or anything like that. It's unfortunate that some people felt that way."
In Eurogamer's February 2009 preview of Resident Evil 5, Dan Whitehead expressed concerns about the controversy the game may generate, stating that "it plays so blatantly into the old clichés of the dangerous 'dark continent' and the primitive lust of its inhabitants that you'd swear the game was written in the 1920s" and "there are even more outrageous and outdated images to be found later in the game, stuff that I was honestly surprised to see in 2009." The article also states that the addition of the light-skinned Sheva "compounds the problem rather than easing it."
Glenn Bowman, Senior Lecturer in Social Anthropology at the University of Kent, Canterbury, has stated that he does not believe Resident Evil 5 is racist. Bowman added that the game presents an anti-colonial theme.
One particular scene in the game, said to show black men dragging off a screaming white woman, was submitted for evaluation to the British Board of Film Classification (BBFC), which deemed it not to be racist. Sue Clark, Head of Communications at the BBFC, stated, "We do take racism very seriously, but in this case there is no issue around racism."
